    • An apparatus and a method provide gain flattening in communications systems wherein a large number of optical signals at different wavelengths must be amplified while maintaining signal power within an acceptable range. Because of differences in gain of typical optical amplifiers as a function of wavelength and input power, the signals at different wavelengths are not amplified by the same amounts. Thus, when amplified multiple times, certain signals tend to become severely attenuated to the point of being no longer useable. The present gain flattening apparatus and method cause signals having higher gain-power products to be attenuated by a greater amount in response to Kerr-induced phase shifting such that after multiple stages of amplification, all the signal powers converge toward a small range of acceptable output powers. The apparatus provides amplification, multiple times, of a series of signals with a plurality of wavelengths covering a very wide spectral range, while maintaining the power of all the signals within a small range. The spread of this signal power range is robust against changes in the signal power, against changes in the number of signals, and, to some degree, against changes in the amplifier's pump power. The apparatus design is also robust against manufacturing changes in the parameters of the apparatus' components. The apparatus and invention are preferably implemented as multiple nonlinear Sagnac amplifiers having erbium-doped fiber amplifiers positioned asymmetrically in an interferometer loop.
    • 一种装置和方法在通信系统中提供增益平坦化,其中必须放大不同波长的大量光信号,同时将信号功率保持在可接受的范围内。 由于作为波长和输入功率的函数的典型光放大器的增益差异,不同波长的信号不会被放大相同的量。 因此,当多次放大时,某些信号倾向于变得严重衰减到不能再使用的程度。 本增益平坦化装置和方法使得具有较高增益功率乘积的信号响应于克尔感应相移而被衰减更大的量,使得在多级放大之后,所有的信号功率向着可接受的输出的小范围收敛 权力。 该装置提供多个具有覆盖非常宽的光谱范围的多个波长的一系列信号的放大倍数,同时将所有信号的功率保持在小范围内。 该信号功率范围的扩展对于信号功率的变化,对于信号数量的变化以及在一定程度上对放大器的泵功率的变化是稳健的。 该设备设计对于设备组件的参数的制造变化也是鲁棒的。 该装置和发明优选地被实现为具有在干涉仪环路中不对称地布置的掺铒光纤放大器的多个非线性Sagnac放大器。
